No Drawing.

To all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that we, JOHN B. llioiim' and THOMAS F. RYAN. citizens of the l nited States. residing at Eddystone. in the county of Delaware. and State of Pennsylvania. have invented certain new and useful linmovements in Composition for Coating Metals, of which the following is a specification.

Our invention relates to an improved composition for coating metals, the object of the proportions:

[ices-wax iauana ()ll 1 pint Rosin .1)? pounds 2' gallons;

'2 pounds 1 Linseed oil l 'lhesc ingredients are mixed together and boiled until the desired. mixture and consistency ot' the composition is secured. I The banana oil serves to hold the bees-wax l and rosin together and prevents any separation after the composition cools which would I be the case if banana oil is omitted. \Vhen applied to metals the composition will readily adhere and quickly dry. The composition resulting from the proportion of ingredients such as above stated,

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed August 9. 1909.

' we claim as new and desire to secure boiled oil, which are mixed the banana Oll serves to combine and bind Patented Jan. ii, ie'io. Serial No. 511.881.

when cooled, is of a gelatinous form and by varying the quantity of linseed oil this form is changed. In other words. a greater proportion of linseed oil than that above stated will result in a composition more resembling a liquid and a less proportion will produce a harder substance.

In applying the composition it is preterably heated so as and is then applied with a brush and may be, if desired. thinned out on the article coated by means of a heating torch and may, of course be applied in various ways, to which. we do not-limit ourselves.

llaving thus described our by Let ters Patent is z 1. A composition. consisting of bees-wax.

banana oil. rosin and linseed oil.

2. A composition, consisting of bees-wax two pounds, banana oil one pint. rosin ninetyseven pounds. linseed oil, two gallons, all together in substantially the proportions stated.

A composition consisting of bees-wax, rosin and linseed oil, together with banana and heated. whereby the bees-wax and rosin together.

In testimony \vhereot we have signed our I names to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
